[horde] $this->registry['auth']['login'] = 'imp';

[Alex Leverington]

I thought about that, but then I though, what if the local horde username is 
jon at horde.org instead of plain jon? Then it would try and do getUserFromEmail
('jon at horde.org') - which looks right, but is incorrect, because indeed the 
username is jon at horde.org - it would be kind of redundant I guess. But 
secondly, someone could make their username 'usern at me' or something like that. 
This way, it's kept completely flexible and imp/horde user stuff is sepearated 
overall (which will make future things easier).
